Bio
I am a native Romanian interpreter and translator with over six years of professional experience in English–Romanian language services and a Bachelor's degree in Social Work. My main area of specialization is public-service interpreting, with a particular focus on Social Work and Social Care. I provide over-the-phone interpreting (OPI) and video remote interpreting (VRI) for social services, healthcare, legal, and other public-service settings, where accuracy, impartiality, confidentiality, and professional judgement are essential. My academic background in Social Work gives me a strong understanding of the terminology, concepts, and professional context surrounding safeguarding, children and families, child protection, family support, vulnerable adults, domestic abuse, adult social care, and related social-service interventions. This subject-matter knowledge allows me to understand the wider context of an assignment while maintaining the clear professional boundaries required of an interpreter. Alongside interpreting, I translate documents between English and Romanian in social care, legal, medical, technical, marketing, and e-commerce fields. My work also includes localization, proofreading, linguistic quality assurance, terminology review, and the evaluation of translated and AI-generated content. I am experienced in working with client-specific terminology, style guides, confidentiality requirements, and quality standards. I use CAT tools including Trados, memoQ, and Smartcat. I am particularly interested in long-term collaborations involving Social Work, Social Care, safeguarding, public services, healthcare, interpreting, translation, localization, and linguistic quality assurance.
